Eye Contact Flush eyes with water for at least 15 minutes. If symptoms develop, obtain. medical attention Ingestion Wash out mouth with water. Do not induce vomiting. Obtain immediate medical attention if ill effects occur. 4.2 Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed Large doses may result in irritation of the gastrointestinal tract leading to nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea. Dehydration and congestion may occur in internal organs. May cause physical abrasion in contact with skin and eyes. Dust may have irritant effect on eyes. High concentrations of dust may be irritant to the respiratory tract.
